    We’re on a cycling touring holiday in South Wales. We don’t travel particularly light, panniers on each bike and I tow a trailer with the camping gear in.
    It’s been a lovely week so far, great riding, quiet roads, good weather.
    Last night we arrived in a campsite just outside Pembroke: Windmill Hill. It’s a lovely site, clean and neat with good facilities including a microwave, fridge and freezer for campers to use. That’s especially useful to us, so last night we put our milk, bacon and butter in the fridge, which was empty apart from our stuff.
    This morning the butter is gone.
    Now it’s obvious someone has had it and it’s not simply a matter of driving to the nearest shop for us to get more
    So Mrs PP goes asking around to see if anyone has it. First tent she spies it on their table. Now, if the bloke had said sorry and handed it back, then fine. But no. He had to lie and say it was theirs, even when we could positively ID it with the reduced sticker on the lid which Mrs PP had half peeled off he still lied.
    Mrs PP is no pushover and eventually got it back. But what a lying thieving ****. I’d have gladly given him butter if he’d asked.
    It’s really pissed me off and although it won’t spoil my day I’m tempted to go and have it out with him.
    Rant over.
    And breath.

    People are weird aren’t they. Try and laugh about it rather than getting mad:

    Should have told him you needed it because it’s your arse butter that you rub on your bum each morning before riding… 🙂

    Grum, agreed.

    I have less self control. I’d have verbally ripped him a new arsehole.

    Sounds like a scene from Mike Leigh’s ‘Nuts in May’
    Funny if it ended in a fistfight in front of small children and everything.

    Were you and Mrs PP perhaps staying on a campsite near Annecy in September 2012?

    Report them to the camp staff they will normally ask them to move on but at least have a word in their ear.

    Jeez? I mean seriously? Have you considered getting the UN involved? I mean, surely blatant steeling of dairy products must breach at least a couple of the Geneva Convention Rules? I hear Kofi isn’t so busy these days, maybe you could get him flown in to mediate??

    I mean, this is the sort of man that it’s going to be very difficult to argue against:

    I bet the butter thief would change their tune pretty dam fast!

    Just curl one off in the tub then put it back in the fridge.

    Similar for milk.

    Yay Mrs p

    You should have gone over. I’ve said this before, you are a very nice man in all the dealings I’ve had with you, but the body art and piercings make you look scary. He’d have poo’ed himself when he saw you coming…….

    Just go over and start to curl one out in the doorway of his tent. When he starts to complain, just maintain that it’s the camp toilet and he’s made a mistake?

    You’ve got to be on your guard! These lovely campsites lull one into a false sense of security. Somebody walked off with my brand new electric shaver (bought that day), and more recently my bike!

    I hope the incident hasn’t put too much of a downer on your holiday, and that you enjoy the rest of your stay. Just keep your butter under lock and key from now on…

    For goodness sake, what a nasty thing to do. Good on K for sorting him out and he certainly won’t do that again. What a toe rag. 😐

    Go around tomorrow morning and offer him an olive branch in the form of a borrow of your butter.
    Take the opportunity to apologise for the mix up and thank him for the return of the butter.

    And as he takes a bite of his toast say, especially as you do not believe in carrying both KY and Lurpak as, as everybody knows you may not be able to spread KY on your toast but you can dip your knob in the butter.

    Sorry, I will get my coat. 😀

    Good for you for not letting it spoil your holiday and churning the other cheek. This type of crime is spreading throughout the land and the perpetrators should be severely punished.
